Park Rules & Regulations

Domesticated animals

Dogs MUST be kept on a leash at all times. Unleashed dogs inhibit birds and other animals from building nests and homes; as animals begin to know
the area as being "unsafe territory" to raise young. When this happens we all lose, as many people visit the park to observe and photograph
wildlife in a natural state. Pemberton Park is an incredibly historical and natural experience for the entire family-including our furry friends.
But, please be responsible and respect the natural surroundings by obeying the on-leash restrictions.

Equestrian use shall be on Woodland and Pondside trails only, unless granted a special permit.
